When downloading a file from the internet, you usually get
a window prompting for an action; either "save as"
or "open". It is also possible to add a checkmark
in "never ask me again".

My question is, how can you get that dialogue box back
after checking the "never show again" ?
 
You set this for each file type, e.g. for .zip
Explorer-View-Folder Options-File Types
Find the .zip association (may be WinZip File)
Edit, (or click Advanced on ME or XP) and check the "Confirm open
after download" box

The path to Folder Options may vary according to your operating
system. It may be:
Explorer-View-Folder Options
Explorer-Tools-Folder Options
Start-Settings-Folder Options
Start-Settings-Control Panel-Folder options.
